"We hired JM Concrete to remove an old broken sidewalk and pour a new one for the entrance to our home. They did a wonderful job. They are easy to get in touch with and good at returning phone calls. They gave us an excellent price on the job. They were professional, courteous, and worked hard. We are very pleased with the finished product. I would definitely recommend this company."

"We are in the process of building a home in Powhatan, VA. We recently had the best professional experience with Bobby from Coastal Landscape Construction! This was not an easy job to clear about 2 acres, put in a long drive way and work in challenging cold and wet weather. Bobby is an up and coming young professional and knows exactly how to plan and achieve the end goal. Bobby was always on time, communicated daily and effectively, planned the land clearing perfectly and his prices are competitive but extremely reasonable. If you want or need any construction work completed right, you MUST use Bobby from Coastal Landscape Construction! Bobby earned a 10/10 perfect review from us and we will be using him again during our home building process! His business phone number is 804-441-1768, serving Powhatan, Midlothian and Richmond VA area."

"BossHogg Industries demolished an 1850's 3-story, 3000+ sq. ft. house (w/basement & 2 tall chimney's) and 7 other outbuildings that were beyond repair; also filled in a well. We were impressed with owner, John Kahl, right from the start; he was very responsive, professional and knowledgeable. He took care of required permits and clearly explained how he would take down the buildings, clean up/remove debris, bring in necessary soil for grading and leave the demo areas in good condition. AND we were NOT disappointed! OUTSTANDING job by John, Amber and Cliff, working together so efficiently and completing the job on time and within budget. Given the amount of debris, we were AMAZED at how clean everything was left. These buildings held many memories for us, but because this team was so pleasant, considerate and took care of everything, the entire experience was less emotional for us! We would highly recommend this company to anyone needing their services, and we were very proud to support this veteran-owned company!"

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Richmond, VA

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
